The latest in a string of announcements from OpenAI is the official release of ChatGPT on Apple Intelligence.

With new ChatGPT integration, iPhone 16 and iPhone 15 Pro users can invoke ChatGPT through Siri, as part of Apple Intelligence's Writing Tools, and with Camera Control which allows ChatGPT to see and understand images.

The Apple and OpenAI partnership was announced last summer's WWDC which unveiled Apple's suite of AI tools called Apple Intelligence. Through the partnership, iPhone users can connect with ChatGPT as an extension of specific tasks. Apple already kind of stole limelight by announcing the release of iOS 18.2, iPadOS 18.2, and macOS Sequoia 15.2 earlier today, including the much-anticipated support of ChatGPT in the announcement.

But in the livestream, CEO Sam Altman, joined by engineering manager Dave Cummings and product manager Miqdad Jaffer demoed some of the ways to use ChatGPT with iOS 18 and macOS Sequoia 15.2. Taking a picture on an iPhone, they showed how iPhone 16's Camera Control uses visual intelligence with ChatGPT to answer questions about an image. Cummings then opened a Mac and demonstrated how to use type to Siri to ask a question about a document. Siri then gave the option to send the query to ChatGPT, which provided a response, including a visual breakdown of the request.

The ChatGPT integration isn't a surprise like some of the other announcements as part of OpenAI's ongoing livestream series, which so far has seen a new ChatGPT Pro plan for $200 a month and its AI video generator Sora. This was expected with the latest Apple software updates, so today's news wasn't so much an unveiling as a confirmation of what we already expected. To be fair, OpenAI did say its 12 days of livestreams would be a mix of "new things, big and small."

That's day five down, seven more to go.
